Pixel Bunneh — Sat, 03 Jan 2009 02:52:44 +0000

It pays, it really does. You can have fun making things, and make a bit of money off them also! There are a few good microstock sites out there, Shutterstock being my favorite for a couple reasons. The site is easy to use for submitters, and the review team is super fast at [...]

Why aren’t you using Filter Forge?

Pixel Bunneh — Fri, 02 Jan 2009 16:50:19 +0000

Adobe Illustrator CS4: Open Path Dilemma

Pixel Bunneh — Fri, 19 Dec 2008 17:39:10 +0000

If you’re working with vectors, leaving open paths in your work is a big no no (I discovered the hard way). Unfortunately, Illustrator doesn’t come with a built in way of finding and closing open paths, so you’re left to eyeball it which in a complex vector doesn’t always work so well. For older versions [...]

Pixel Bunneh — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 20:42:42 +0000

I’ve been working a bit with some pictures I had on file, just having fun over the holiday weekend One issue I have with digital cameras is the automatic focus, it seems that the camera never focuses on what I want it to and I end up with a lovely close up of a [...]

With a subscription you can track your watermarks, and even use Digimarcs backup system which is kind of cool. As of now, the plugin only supports Photoshop and Adobe Photoshop Elements which seems pretty [...]

Sketchup and Home Improvement

Pixel Bunneh — Tue, 14 Oct 2008 13:54:27 +0000

Speaking of home renovations, I had the idea that I would do a 3D mockup of what we’re planning to do with our bathroom, you know, to get an better feel for what would fit where etc. The first problem I ran into is that most 3D applications don’t use feet or inches (or meters [...]

Pixel Bunneh — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 23:40:51 +0000

Been busy with other things recently, sorry about that. If I could renovate my home with the same speed and detail I can do one in 3D, I would be a very happy Bunneh. Alas, I can’t. Anyway, in my spare time I’ve been working on some textures for a Halloween themed set for Second Life. [...]
